The following comments by Dr. Martinez are one of countless testimonials regarding the effects of mangosteen juice. While he does not specify if the shoulder pain is as a result of an injury or arthritis, the end result is the same. The xanthones in the mangosteen have remarkable anti-inflammatory qualities. The mangosteen juice benefits are very obvious. If the pain is a result of arthritis or if the pain is from inflamation from trauma, the end result is the same. Simply drinking mangosteen juice for its health benefit has reduced the amount of joint pain.
Dr. Enrique Martinez, M.D.
I am a medical doctor specializing in occupational medicine. I have an acute shoulder
pain, and I have been using different non-steroidal anti-inflammatories with a poor
response. I have found that when I use Mangosteen juice in addition to the normal, notsteroidal
anti-inflammatories, the RESPONSE IS MUCH FASTER AND LASTS
LONGER, SO I FEEL RELIEF FROM THE PAIN."
